FITZMATHIE (11) Member of Faculty at North High Institute of Chicago) (12) 1920 Western newspaper union Lesson for March 9 THE PARABLE OF THE SOWER PRIMARY TOLICHE HEARTS and THORDS JUNIOR LORD HEARTS and THORDS INTERNALIZE AND SENIOR LORD LIVING HEAD TO LESS TREASURED YOUTH HEART AND ADULT LORD TAKE HEAD TO HEAR. In this thirteenth chapter of Matthw the "mysteries" of the kingdom are unfolded by "mystery" in the Scriptures in mental truth and discoverable by human reason unde known revelation. The seven parables of this chapter set forth in a most graphic manner the abolition of moral and spiritual affliction in the world between Christ's ascension and return to the earth. 1 The Sower (p. 3). The power is not natural in this par- able. In the promise of the wheat and fires the power is the Son of Mun (v 37) It is evident that the power in this case is the Lord Jesus Christ. Through the centuries he has been sowing the seed of divine truth by means of prophethic apostles and ministers. II. The Kind of Soil (vv. 49; 10 21) The soil is the human heart (v 10) The seed down in the Word of God (v. 10) The difference of results lies in the condition of the soil, which in turn is the state of the human heart. Notwithstanding the faithfulness of the sower and the purity of the seed, the results of preaching God's Word depend upon the condition of the human heart. This pivable reveals four kinds of soil or hearers 1. The wavy side, or hard hearted hearer (v 4. of v. 10) 1. The wavable means the track honeen down by the hoofs of animals, and the foot of men. Because the soil was unbroken and unmultitated the seed could not get beneath the surface, therefore was deserved by the fowl. The great truth taught is that the heart unbroken and hard is not favorable soil for the gospel. 2. The stone places or superficial heathers (vv. 5, 16 of vv. 20, 21). This means stones with a thin inner of soil upon them. Under such conditions the seed springs up quickly but likewise secures quickly hearts superficially impressed resolve God's Word with joy but when perception and trials come they are not able to endure. 3. The thorns ground or pre-occupied hearers (v 7 of v 22) In this case the ground is good mel low enough and of sufficient depth, but has thorns in it. Such really hent the Word of God but the cares of this world and the deceivefulness of riches and the lusts of other things, entering in choke the Word and it becomes unfruitful) (Mark 4 19) Many are the "thorny ground" bearers of this age. The good seed cannot mature because (1) of world illness. Men and women are completely absorbed in the things of business and are burdened with care. (2) The deceitfulness of riches Anxious care in business brings riches to many. The effect of riches is to blunt the spiritual perception of men (3) Lands of other things entering in. This means the pleasures of life. All these things chose the Word of God. Many of the enjoyments of the world may be innocent in themselves, but they attract so much attention and consume so much energy and time that one has no time for Bible reading, meditation and prayer. 4 The good ground, or fruitful hearers (v 8 of v 23) "But other fall into good ground and brought forth fruit." This ground differed from all the rest. It was mellow, deep and moist, therefore it was capable of bringing forth fruit a hundred, some sixty, and some thirty fold. In the measure that the heart is kept free from worldiness, riches and pleasure, the good seed matures. III. The Purpose of Teaching in Parables (v 1017). There is much misperception concerning teaching in parables. The parable method of teaching makes clear the truth to those that love it but conceals it from those who have a dislike for it. Jesus did not teach by parables till the rulers had set their hearts against Him. When in the light of His miracles and wonderful works they turned against him and attributed His works to the devil, he denounced them in the most scathing terms and began to teach in parables, in fulfillment of the prophecy of Isaiah (Matt. 13:14, 15; cf. Isa. 6.9, 10). God Ever Ready to Protect God often strikes away our props to bring us down upon his mighty arms. What strength and peace it gives us to feel them underneath us! Far as we may sink, we cannot go farther down than those stretched arms.—Doctor Cusler, What Love Is Love is the simple desire for the highest good of another or of others, and is the expression of a spirit of self surrender.—Bishop Westcott. BY REV. I. 615 Wabash Avenue March 0, 1930 WHY AND HOW, WIN OTHERS TO CHRIST. Isaiah 6:1-8; Rev. 22:17 We should win others to Christ first of all because to fear God and keep his commandments is the whole (duty) of man. Ecc. 12:13. Second—We should win others to Christ because of the value of the soul." "What should a man give in exchange for his soul?" Third—We should win others to Christ because we have been won to Him, and it is anguish not to pass the realing message on. Finally, we should win others to Christ because at the cross humanity becomes one. How Are We To Win Others To Christ?" First—We must ourselves be partakers of the Divine Nature, we must know Him, that is we must live on earth' but our lives must be ruled from above. Second—We must have a passion to win men to Christ. Third—We must be able to make a speech for God. seek the lost, and not wait to be Fourth—We'must' (like our Lord) sought by the lost, as the doctor waits for the call of his patient, or the laver for his client. Fifth—Let no opportunity pass to win a soul for Christ. The true Church is sent to a lost world, hence each Christian is a messenger r God, and has a massage from God to man, its a message of Love. Our lesson shows a two-fold mission of Christ. First—He came to show Mercy and save. His second coming will be to show judgement to the unbeliever but gladness to His Church. Christ's credentials were "The Spirit of the Lord is union Me." He was anointed from birth. THOUGHTS: Each Christian is a living witness for Christ. Our strongest testimony is' what we are. If we have found the cure for the cancer of Sin' let us pass it on. Have you ever won a soul for Christ? When will you begin, the time is short. St. Matthew C. M. E. Ch. REV. C. M. HAWKINS, PASTOR J.

TED WELLIVER—Ras been deal- ing in whisky for some Gime. We do.ted nim making a two gallon de- livery to a Negro in the North End, He had this whisky in fouy half gel- lon fruit Jars; and his wife and three children were sitting on it, He has used them as a blind for sometime. We raided his home and found a complete distilling equipment, When this case comes into court there will undoubtedly be a movement for a parole; giving his family as agra. son, There has been a cer ain a+ mount of agitation toward this end aheady, This is a pitiful car’; we agice; Lut it seems that a great nam Ler of the leggerns we arrest ‘yc us- Ing the same family stall. EARL BLAKE—Was caught wilh a laree amount of liquor in the coun- ty. This man Is one of a large ring that Is furnishing this city; and this vicinity with ipuor in wholesale lots, ‘We; in company with several Feder- al officers located the plant and cal- led on the Sheriff to assist us in raid- ing the place. We caught this man a. sty last year; with a Buick Coupe making a delivery of seven gallons. To date this man has never been tried. And when he does we pred'ct that tha sent -nces on the transnorting and on this cree will be pan concur- rently, Hf such is the case there Is no reason why he should not cont.ntie in the business as long as he is not forced to trial. After we get him tried; if he is then caught again; we can send him tricd; if he is then caught apain; we can send him up on a persistent violator charge. This #-precents one of the conditions that we have spoker.of in previous Issues of this bulletin? As it now stands; as long as a man is caught and [s not tried: It makes no difference how reny thres he ia caught; as event- ually it is all included in one sen tence. 7 THE SUNNY BOY PRODUCT COMPANY—Is located on Rock Is- land Avenue, This firm has been genie in “Jake” ond other drink- atle extracts in wholesale lots. They have been trying to get by the law, Everything that they sold contained 8 certainsamount of alcohol and It was all drinkable. Heretofore we have not been able to secure convic- tions as they always claimed that their products were made under Gov- erment specifications. When we had the extracts analyzed the chemists always roid that it contained the vight amount of solids. But we en- hsted the aid of the U. S. Govern- ment and when their chemists ana- Ivzed the extracts they found that they had the right amount of solids: but that the solids were adulterated and that the exteneta were drinkable, ‘The solids that they have been using i. something other than dried ginger root: which is rebuired by law. ADDIS WHOLESALE GROCERY COMPANY—A large amount of ‘Jake’ ond o her drinkable extracts were confiecated at the above place. TERUG STORES—At least ten of the ci'y's “jake peddling” drug stores have been-raided and the proprietorn have be erreiened before the U, 5.
